Emlandweni wempucuko yabantu, iGibhithe neShayina womabili amazwe asendulo anesikhathi eside esidlule. Nokho, ngokomlando, isiko, inkolo, nobuciko, kunomehluko ocacile phakathi kwalokhu kokubili. Lokhu kwehluka kwamasiko akubonakali nje ekuphileni kwansuku zonke, kodwa futhi kuthinta kakhulu ibhizinisi eliwela imingcele namuhla.
Okokuqala, uma sibheka indlela abantu abaxhumana ngayo, amasiko aseShayina nawaseGibhithe ahluke kakhulu. Abantu baseShayina bavamise ukuzigodla futhi bathule, bathanda ukusebenzisa izindlela ezingaqondile ukuze baziveze futhi bavame ukugwema ukuthi “cha” ngokuqondile ukuze bagcine izinto zihloniphekile. Nokho, abaseGibhithe bakhululekile futhi bakhululekile. Bakhombisa imizwa eyengeziwe lapho bekhuluma, basebenzisa ukuthinta kwezandla kakhulu, futhi bayathanda ukukhuluma ngokucacile nangokuqondile. Lokhu kucace ikakhulukazi phakathi nezingxoxo zebhizinisi. Abantu baseShayina bangase bathi “cha” ngendlela ezungezayo, kuyilapho abaseGibhithe bekhetha ukuthi usho ngokucacile isinqumo sakho sokugcina. Ngakho, ukwazi indlela yolunye uhlangothi lokukhuluma kungasiza ekugwemeni ukungezwani futhi kwenze ukuxhumana kube lula.
Okwesibili, umqondo wesikhathi ungomunye umehluko omkhulu ovame ukunganakwa. Esikweni lamaShayina, ukufika ngesikhathi kubaluleke kakhulu, ikakhulukazi emicimbini yebhizinisi. Ukufika ngesikhathi noma kusenesikhathi kubonisa inhlonipho ngabanye. E-Egypt, isikhathi sivumelana nezimo. Kuvamile ukuthi imihlangano noma izikhathi ezimisiwe zifike sekwephuzile noma zishintshwe kungazelelwe. Ngakho-ke, lapho sihlela imihlangano eku-inthanethi noma ukuvakasha namakhasimende aseGibhithe, kufanele silungele izinguquko futhi sihlale nesineke.
Okwesithathu, abantu baseShayina nabaseGibhithe nabo banezindlela ezihlukene zokwakha ubudlelwano nokuthembana. E-China, abantu ngokuvamile bafuna ukwakha uxhumano lomuntu siqu ngaphambi kokwenza ibhizinisi. Bagxila ekuthembekeni kwesikhathi eside. Abantu baseGibhithe nabo banendaba nobudlelwano bomuntu siqu, kodwa bangakha ukwethembana ngokushesha. Bathanda ukusondelana ngezinkulumo zobuso nobuso, ukubingelela ngemfudumalo nokungenisa izihambi. Ngakho, ukuba nobungane nokufudumala kuvame ukuhambisana nalokho abantu baseGibhithe abakulindele.
Uma sibheka imikhuba yansuku zonke, isiko lokudla libonisa umehluko omkhulu. Ukudla kwaseShayina kunezinhlobo eziningi futhi kugxile embala, iphunga, nokunambitha. Kodwa abantu baseGibhithe abaningi bangamaSulumane, futhi indlela yabo yokudla ithonywa inkolo. Abayidli ingulube noma ukudla okungcolile. Uma ungayazi le mithetho uma umema noma uvakasha, kungase kubangele izinkinga. Futhi, imikhosi yamaShayina efana noMkhosi Wasentwasahlobo kanye noMkhosi Wamaphakathi Nekwindla imayelana nemibuthano yomndeni, kuyilapho imikhosi yaseGibhithe efana ne-Eid al-Fitr ne-Eid al-Adha inencazelo eyengeziwe yenkolo.
Ngisho noma kunomehluko omkhulu, amasiko aseShayina nawaseGibhithe nawo abelana ngezinto ezithile. Isibonelo, bobabili abantu bakhathalela kakhulu umndeni, ukuhlonipha abadala, futhi bayathanda ukubonisa imizwa ngokuphana izipho. Ebhizinisini, lo “muzwa womuntu” usiza izinhlangothi zombili ukwakha ukubambisana. Ukusebenzisa la manani abiwe kungasiza abantu basondelane futhi basebenzisane kangcono.
Kafushane, nakuba amasiko aseShayina nawaseGibhithe ehlukene, uma sifunda futhi samukelana ngenhlonipho nangokuqondana, asikwazi nje ukuthuthukisa ukukhulumisana kodwa nokwakha ubungane obuqinile phakathi kwalamazwe amabili. Ukwehluka kwamasiko akufanele kubhekwe njengezinkinga, kodwa njengamathuba okufunda komunye nomunye nokukhula ndawonye.
